Not a drill. It's been actually reported by a reputable source:

How much will Harper get now...$320?

[JuTMSY4]

My guess? 10/340-50.

Maybe he blows it away. I'm more surprised the Phils couldn't match this.

Disgusting.

[JuTMSY4]

I agree

Disgusting.

I wish Middleton would keep more of his money. It's billionaires vs. millionaires - I don't really have a side.

And now Harper having “second thoughts” about playing in Philly.

Everything going according to Boras’ script.

[JuTMSY4]

on second thought, he'd like more money.

IMO the Giants are the only player in this the Phils need to be concerned about. The White Sox who coveted Machado wouldn't beat out the Padres for him. Their capped. Washington has severe Luxury Tax issues if they went higher. The Giants just saw the Padres get better but everyone kept saying they didn't want to go more than 7 years. I guess it's according to how much.

$24,000 per inning

Manny didn’t want to play on the west coast last week.

Up is down. Black is white.

And green is green...

Just goes to show it's all about money and not winning a championship.

how does that math work, exactly?

The padres have the best farm system in baseball right now with several elite prospects about to be brought up in the next year or 2. I'd bank on them improving dramatically starting as soon as 2020.

The Phillies aren't exactly annual WS contenders last time I checked.

The Phillies improved dramatically this off-season. When they top it off by adding Harper, Keuchel, and Kimbrel they will be WS contenders.

Not one single Padres starting pitcher would make the Phillies rotation. It is quite possibly the worst rotation in MLB history.
